I used these instructions to fix our 04 Acura MDX window and it worked like a charm. I am not mechanically inclined but I know how to follow instructions! Thank you so much for the details! It was exactly what I needed! Saved me hundreds of dollars.

When you remove the plastic barrier, you can also use a heat gun to warm the adhesive for removal. This will help preserve the weather barrier for a snug seal when replacing. Used your video to replace my 2000 3.2 TL driver's side regulator. Your narration of instructions was awesome. The lighting and view angles were also spot-on.

You guys showed how to do it very well and very simply. EVEN SOMEONE WHO HAS NO EXPERIENCE CAN FEEL CONFIDENT THAT THEY CAN DO IT!! Again, awesome job! Best how to video I've ever seen!!!!!!

GREAT tutorial. I made short work of this job on my '02 Acura TL. Thanks for the tips on the masking tape on the window, and the glue in the socket. Two things: 1. I ended up with 3 screws “left over”. I was stuck for a minute until I remembered that the regulator came with the 3 “grooved” screws already included. 2. I wasn't able to test the window until the switch on the door panel was reconnected.

I have my daughter's 1997 Acura 2.2 CL with this regulator problem. I am confident that with this video and my shop manual I'll get the job done. Thanks for a well thought out and detailed How-To video. I especially like the care you and the videographer took to show the bits and pieces i.e. the slots of the partially removed bolts, etc. Great job.

Success! This tutorial just worked for me, and I purchased the part directly from you because this video seemed so good. I have not worked on my own car in over a year, and rarely do so. This made it quick and stress free. Saved me over $300 that would have been down the drain. Saved me from getting a broken or slow-shipping part from somewhere else. Wasn't sure this would fix it because it used to work sometimes and not work other times and I thought it was electrical. Tremendous thanks.

Good job! My only suggestion to make the finish job better is when you remove the plastic barrier, start from the bottom and use a razor blade to cut the adhesive. Just pull on the plastic so the adhesive stretches and use the blade to cut the stretched adhesive. The plastic barrier remains in tact and the finished job looks better!

Nice Video. Very linear, thoughtful about the little details. I have already dismantled my 2005 MDX window, and it is about the same thing. Mine works except for some tiny broken plastic guides for the cables that allowed them to disconnect from window slider. Thumbs Up. Thanks. Also, my Air Conditioning Vent Motor seems to have just gone out... the part is so expensive! Will search for a tutorial or even just diagrams to see what that replacement will entail. Will also check out your parts store.

You saved my reputation as a Dad (68) who used to work on cars and my kids $200 vs. Acura's price of $388 to replace. Four things to consider: 1.) I bought the entire regulator from Parts Geek for $140. Auto Parts Warehouse had the same one for $161. Neither one seemed to own the part but were drop shipping someone else's stock. Since Parts Geek didn't have a phone number, I paid an extra $30 for overnight delivery from a warehouse 45 miles from my house. Oops.STILL CHEAPER THAN ACURA BY $100. 2.) Buying the entire regulator is the SMART move because buying just the motor wouldn't have helped since the cable was also broken. 3.) I fought with what appeared to be simple installation for 30 minutes before I discovered that the TSK' part had a motor bolt in the wrong position on the motor for the panel slots. Oops again. 4.) Very happy to discover that the window mount on the channel was already pre-positioned correctly so all I had to do was drop the window and install 2 bolts. SWEET! Thanks so much for your video.

On the plastic clip that holds the door handle rod, mine just twisted out of the way instead of trying to pull past the top of the clip. Just twist it like 90 degrees out of the way and then the rod will come right out. I found this out by accident but maybe it'll help speed up the process in the future 🍻

Great pro detail that most $$ saving DYI Katz can understand. 1 suggestions; The aftermarket parts availability/selection may have evolved since filming but there are quite a few aftermarket replacement brands out there to choose from? Maybe listing your preference or a good-better-best; even a Honda Accord part cross match; this would be great information. cheapest part sometimes cost you a lot more in the long run with some of these aftermarket brand “compatible fits” not fitting or even the opposite where one manufacture makes it for 4 differently priced reseller....

It appears to me that a replacement regulator must come already positioned at the access holes in the door. The replacement I have is not positioned there and I cannot slide it to change that. Yours was already at the correct position. Is it a bad replacement or is there some way to move it or is there something I am clueless about? Seems that if the window bracket were able to slide, it would be falling down all the time.

Let it set up overnight and we'll see what happens. That monkey glue really expands. We'll have to cut some out. 2001 that stuff starts to get brittle.
